What should I prepare for?

Before the show

Plan your schedule

Before you arrive at ExCeL London, take some time to familiarize yourself with our floor plan, exhibitors and conference agenda. Make a note of which sessions you are most keen to attend, exhibitors you want to visit and any networking events that you want to attend. This way you'll have an idea of how to structure your days around your must-see exhibitors, sessions and networking events.

Map out the exhibitors you want to visit

With a wide variety of exhibitors at the show, it’s helpful to plan ahead. Become familiar with the show floor and select who you want to meet on-site so you can plan a route around the show floor each day.

Download the app

Our official show app will allow you to:

  • Plan your event experience
  • Network via instant chat and video calls.
  • Navigate the show floor with ease.
  • Create your own personalized conference schedule.

Don't forget to pack those business cards

There’s no better place to expand your network. You’re at TravelTech Show to learn AND network, so challenge yourself to connect with at least three new people every day.

Switch on your out of office

You won't want to be disturbed by any unnecessary emails or people chasing to hear from you. Switch on your out of office and let your team know you'll be spending your day networking and meeting like-minded professionals at TravelTech Show

During the show

Arrive at ExCeL in good time

You may have to queue when you arrive at ExCel so give yourself plenty of time to get your badge scanned before entering the halls. Once inside familiarize yourself with the show floor and exhibition layout. Take some time to walk the floor and make sure that your pre-arranged route still works for you.

Wear comfortable shoes

You’ll do a surprising amount of walking at TravelTech Show. Between leaving your accommodation, walking between sessions and attending networking events, you may well be on your feet all day. Make sure you wear shoes that are comfortable and won't cause you pain.

Participate in the conference sessions

Make sure to get involved with any sessions you attend. Write notes, take pictures and be sure to ask questions to develop the discussions on stage. You can also use our networking app to submit as many questions as you like.

Meet the exhibitors

Is there a specific company you want to meet with whilst at ExCeL? Head straight to their stand and their team members will be happy to talk you through their products and solutions.

Make sure to attend the networking events

Don't forget to participate in the many networking events put on by our exhibitors. They'll give you ample opportunities to the exhibitors and attendees in a less formal setting.
